Women, Peace and Security is one of the most contentious areas one can be involved in. In your experience, what are some really good approaches to training people to make them more receptive to WPS concepts and engaged in WPS implementation?
Hi! I am also planning training modules. My idea is to work with NGOs to teach lessons learned in different contexts since each country has different needs that participants have to think about but can learn from others. You can approach the Sweedish NGO Operation 1325.
Many people in the peace community use speakers and teachers from the Friends (Quakers.)
I have invited speakers to come and train people from the Friends' AVP program.
Alternatives to Violence.

Hi,
2 sources that may be useful in your research:
The UN Women Training Centre has a Resource Centre containing tools and materials related to Training for Gender Equality. You need to register first to access their training resources.
The Australian Federal Police have a Pacific Police Development Program (PPDP) which supports the Pacific Islands Chiefs of Police Women’s Advisory Network. Through the Timor-Leste Police Development Program, the AFP undertakes Gender-Based Violence Investigations Training and has produced a manual for use in training the PoliciaNacional de Timor-Leste in gender-based violence issues.

Whatever appropriate approach notwithstanding, a good understanding of the culture (socialization, gender roles, etc) of such groups is critical
